I took light weight copper ground wire. Using dyke cutters I gentely cut groves in the wire. Sanded it to break the lines, formed the Kulis to the shape using a dowel with a cup rounded concave into the end of the dowel to shape the large eyes. Painted with acrylic paint. The bee is from tuploe, not very pleased with the outcome. Better luck next time. My plan is to use the fine wire and insert it under the Bee Eaters toungue with the dragonfly just about in its mouth. .
Here is my attempt to make a dragonfly using copper wire and Kulis Karvet, with the wings I made onto transparancy film.
